AutoCAD - CAD

Expert: <font color=#6b238e>J. </font><font color=#ff7f00>B. </font><font color=#0000ff>Borge</font> - 9/29/2007

Question
Two questions: my partner just bought autocad 2007 Lt and when he plots everything except the heavy title block lines, the drawing title text and the dimension ticks are extremely light. He uses aclt.ctb to print and checks "scale lineweights". Before he had autocad 2001 lt and worked fin. Why is this happening? Also, sometimes when I try to copy with base point or make a block of something and then try to insert it nothing happens and in the command line it says "pasteclip". What's going on?

Answer
Ensure your aclt.ctb plot style table (color & lineweight) correlates w/ colors used in your dim text & ticks. Modify ctb if necessary.
As far as the pasteclip issue, pls check w/ autodesk hotfix if not installed yet:
